We are happy to announce that we have been shortlisted for the Hambleton Community Awards under the "Community Group of the Year" category! The winners will be announced next Tuesday at the prize-giving at The Forum. A great opportunity to mix with other volunteers and celebrate the good work people are doing in our community.
